Wish List - Wish List: Wish #301

Users can browse and look through all their files on nanoHUB via the “Storage Management” page but they have no way to actually download the files (at least that I can tell).

This is *really* needed for tools that generate large output results (> 30MB) that are not suitable for loading in Rappture. Currently the only way for a tool to serve files for download is to copy their contents into a string output element. When the file is large (> 30MB or so) doing this causes Rappture to freeze and become unusable. This wish would allow a tool to instead post a “README” string in the output that contains directions on how to download the (large) files via the “Storage Management” page.
